My Matilda Blanchard was born 6 Aug 1815, possibly in VT or NY. She married Amraphael Russell in the early 1830s, likely around Cattaraugus County NY. Their first child, Susan Russell, was born in York, Livingston County, NY, in 1833; their son Joseph was born in Ohio in 1839. Matilda died 11 Sep 1844, likely in either Ohio or New York. Does anyone know who her parents were, or which Blanchard family she belongs to? Any help very much appreciated. -Jim in Redmond, WA. e-mail: 70334.1307@compuserve.com
